Cute bed, shorter than a bunk, takes up a lot of floor space
Its OK. I read a lot of reviews prior to ordering this bed. I just wanted to review a few of the things I wished Id known before ordering. First, the width of the bed with the slide attached requires at least 9 feet. The bed is 41 inches wide without the length of the slide. Once you attach the slide (which adds another 60 inches of floor space) you need to count on this taking up about 9 / 10 feet of space. Second, the bed rail height is only 12 inches high. The mattress pictured is a 6 inch bunk bed style mattress. This makes the picture seem like the bed rail is fairly high. We put our standard Sealy twin bed mattress (not a pillow top) on the top of this bed, and the mattress is as high, if not slightly higher, than the bed rail. I am not happy with this. There is no way to attach an additional bed rail like you might use between a mattress and box spring. Third, the height under the mattress /bed is only about 28 inches. It is a small height, but ok for a play space. It fits kids 6 and under well, but its hard to fit under there as an adult. I dont think a kid over 10 would fit well. Also the total height of the bed from the floor to the top of the bed rail is about 4 feet. While the slide takes up a bit of floor space, it isnt that long of a slide, so kids over 6 may be too big for it. Overall, the assembly was no more difficult than typical Swedish big box furniture. The bed tent arrives separately than the bed itself. The bed arrived in one box and in only a few days after ordering. I paid slightly less than 200 for this product plus the fire truck curtain to go with it so shop around.
